do sit down

Once this old chair was green.
After a long time in the garden, the paint was peeling off.
For the time being the seat is unpainted, slightly sanded and stamped.
Until we have figured a new color...

Meanwhile, this is the status of the oblong pillow project.

I am very pleased with the pillow p♦r♦o♦j♦e♦c♦t so far.
The pillow cover is growing slowly, diamond by diamond.
Two more 'rows' to go, then the handmade oblong pillow cover is finished (at least one side of the pillow)
I like it so much already and it's wonderful to design something new.
I don't have a ♦ crochet pattern, but I figured it out myself.
The wool gets kind of knotty and I can not watch a movie and crochet ♦ at the same time (yet).

It is not a tapestry,
it's my project from a distance.
I pinned the wool to the wood for a while.
Now I know what it will be...
(new projects often start this way) to be continued...

underwear wall peg

Very useful in the bedroom, this underwear wall peg.
Of course you can also use it as a [what to wear tomorrow wall peg]!
This peg saves me a lot time in the morning.
If you already know what to wear, it will save you a lot of annoyance about your outfit.
Hang your clothes on the peg the night before and you can simply dress, instead of trying everything...

de-decorate

Okay it's a bit bare after a few weeks.
Nevertheless, it's also a relief to have our living room back.
 

ode to orange

Orange was the color of 2012.
To be more precise it was Tangerine Tango according to Pantone.
Well it has been my favorite color for quite some years (especially in the interior) and I will stick to it for some time...

The color of 2013 is Emerald.
Want to know all about Emerald and the colorful history?
They even have a color of the day.
